When searching for breakfast options in Abingdon, the crepes are what drew my attention! They had sooo many options that I opted for an omelette and a sweet treat. For our beverages, I ordered the Frankenstein special (taro & matcha latte) for myself and a Spanish latte for my husband. The omelette and Spanish latte were delicious! The Frankenstein and Cactus sweet treat could've been better.

While the prices were similarly high, the overall experience was quite different. The vibe and atmosphere didn't match what we remembered, and unfortunately the food quality fell short as well. My savory crepe tasted reheated rather than made to order, and the dressing was overly sweet. My husband's omelet, however, was excellent and did not disappoint. On a positive note, the staff was very kind and welcoming, which we appreciated.

Paired the chai with a gluten free brownie and a gluten free cookie that was almost like a gingerbread cookie just to as strong .

I've taken business associates and family with the highest confidence that they would experience the finest meal they've ever had. Sadly, my last two visits, My guests and I were disappointed. They no longer offer a full-size filet mignon, which in itself is very disappointing, the thin "4oz"(not) filet medalions were under cooked . And no baked potatoes! What?! We finished our "Non-Tavern-like" meal looking forward to the excellent cheesecake we've enjoyed dozens of times. Not tonight, my friend! We were told they now offer a homemade flavored cheese cake. Only i opted to try it. What i was served was a small square that tasted little like the excellent NY-style one they served for years. Our server, who the bartender said was now one of the owners, told us that the cheesecake we had bragged about for years, "that old cheesecake was from Cisco!" Hmmm. Very sad! What happened? New chef? New owners? I don't know but the Bottom line is we'll likely find another restaurant that hasn't put profits ahead of quality.

For a small place, its service and food vastly belie the compact nature of its environment. I had one of the best burgers I've had in a long, long time, and this just returning from San Diego, CA, a place known for great burgers, notably "Hodads". The side salad was, unbelievably, even better. Fresh, robust in size, and it just complemented the burger better than I'd have ever imagined. My wife had mixed veggies, avocado, rice, and pintos. All were good/great but the pintos were singularly her plates star. The place was impeccably clean, including the bathrooms. Staff was courteous and professional in all interactions. Literally a smaller venue in a smaller town, that easily is punching above its weight class. Highly recommended.

I was staying at a hotel just down the street and our experience was so good, My son and I had breakfast two days in a row here. Not only was Sierra and the team of people working the breakfast counter sweeter than the homemade jam, they were also engaging friendly and so kind to my son and me. Let's talk about the food. The homemade bread, perfectly cooked eggs, homemade local sausage, fresh local breads from the bakery around the corner, which I believe was Stick Figure or something like that, and probably the best pancake I've had in years. If you love breakfast- and I do not... you are not to miss this place. I must say that this May has turned me into a breakfast lover. Just a note, you'll probably wait an hour for a table...

Food wise, we ordered the super sunny avocado toast (I opted for scrambled eggs), the stuffed French toast and Melanie's fruit waffle. Everything was beyond Delicious!!

The main building is a lovely and spacious modern inn that balances comfort and traditional elements with open and wide modern floor plans and bright spaces in a pleasing way while retaining the cozy fireplace experiences of more traditional settings. A first floor outdoor veranda opposite the main entrance stretches the length of the main building overlooking the well groomed hillside vineyards and a stocked, picturesque fishing pond. The hillside stretches up the horizon and with the westward facing veranda, offers stunning sunset views along with wine service. Below is a patio off the main restaurant and bar offering even more seating around fire pits with couches and Adirondack chairs with appetizer and drinks available for the bar/restaurant. We toured a king 2 room suite with a large sitting area separated from an equally large and well appointed sleeping area with a private large balcony that also faced the western sunset over the vineyards. The rooms were described as more akin to an apartment whereas the 9 onsite yurts accommodations were described more akin to a condo, described as pet friendly and a quiet community. Behind the yurts is a large barn structure that serves as a tasting room with an outdoor seating area with Edison lights strung around the overhang creating a warm space to enjoy the vineyards end production, currently nine wine vintages. Beside the main building are two much larger shaped yurt structures housing a full fitness center and a spa as will as an outdoor pool. We dined at Hickory for dinner and enjoyed their farm to table, Appalachia oriented menus. That will be a separate review but it hits 10/10 for hospitality, service, presentation and food excellence. We plan a fall trip for an overnight stay when the vineyards come in just before harvest to get the full experience! Also, we initially had a glass of their Chardonnay and being pleased with this, we opted to enjoy a bottle with dinner even though the wine list had equally excellent choices from familiar vineyards. This is highly recommended!

Skip a meal and go for the atmosphere with drinks or apps. Still a great ambience, but it's just overpriced. Ribs were chewy, like they were boiled and just seared for some char marks. The Bolognare tasted one step up from sphagetti-os with just noodles and vodka sauce. Their star has always been their carrots side dish. Others warned us, but we won't be back for a lunch/dinner.
